We were on a party line when I was young.

I had a party line in the duplex I rented in 1984, It may still be
that way. The owner had a party line on both sides of the duplex with
different phone numbers but it was the same line. He was probably the
only guy in that area that had a party line.

I miss the days when, if the person you were calling had the same prefix
number, you only had to dial the last 4 numbers.
